Layout Considerations
• Avoid having large, moving objects, especially people,
behind the participants, as the quality of the picture
transmitted to the remote party will deteriorate.
• Do not seat participants in front of a wall with fine stripe
patterns.
• Choose a room where echo will not occur.
• Do not install the system near noise sources such as air
conditioners or copy machines.
• Avoid placing the system in a room where there are the
speakers used for an in-house broadcasting system.
Lighting Considerations
Do not point the camera toward a window where sunlight
comes in as back lighting may decrease the contrast. If it is
necessary, cover the window with a thick curtain.
Adjust room lighting so that it falls on the participants.
Avoid direct light on the display.
Light intensity on faces should be about 300 lux or more.
